jerusalem_n therefore_o lie_v foure-square_a because_o it_o can_v never_o be_v move_v but_o stand_v fast_o for_o ever_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v see_v we_o receive_v a_o kingdom_n which_o can_v be_v

that_o king_n shall_v throw_v down_o their_o crown_n and_o sceptre_n before_o it_o account_v all_o their_o pomp_n and_o glory_n but_o as_o dust_n in_o respect_n of_o it_o for_o the_o magnificence_n
